Kabukimono

While we haven't heard the full record yet, Rainbow Arabia's new album Kabukimono has been on our radar for awhile. Rainbow Arabia's last record The Basta featured edgy dance-synth straight from a middle eastern desert night. Kabukimono promises the same pulsing tribal rhythms only with a few more splashes of sun to brighten up the sound a bit. It's going to be hard for writers and critics to stop making comparisons to Gang Gang Dance, but since when is that a problem? Kabukimono is out today Manimal Vinyl. .
